Build: A K-1 Early Reading Intervention is a 100-lesson, small-group reading intervention developed by the Luke Waites Center for Dyslexia and Learning Disorders. The Build curriculum addresses five specific components of reading intervention. Each component is taught developmentally using a direct, systematic, cumulative, multisensory method of introduction and practice to meet the specific needs of kindergarten and first-grade students who are struggling in reading and may be at risk for dyslexia. The five reading intervention components include: - Alphabet: the identification of letters, sequencing skills, and alphabetizing - Letter/sound knowledge: the direct instruction of individual letters and sounds, leading to the practice of reading words and sentences - Phonological awareness: the explicit introduction of the relationships between speech-sound production, from rhyme to spelling - Vocabulary: the direct teaching of strategies using context clues to infer the meaning of unfamiliar words - Comprehension: the explicit teaching of specific learning strategies used to identify the basic components of a story This session is aligned with the Intervention component of the TEA-required self-assessment.
